Simple Ecosystem Definition

The simplest definition of an ecosystem is that it is a community or group of living organisms


that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment.

ENVIRONMENT
the air, water, and land in or on which people, animals, and plants live:
The sum total of all surroundings of a living organism, including natural forcesand other living things,
which provide conditions for development and growth as well as of danger and damage
Definition. The biotic factor or biotic component is the living organism that shapes an
ecosystem. Abiotic factors or abiotic components of an ecosystem are the non-living physical
and chemical composition of nature.

 Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of an environment. These include


things such as sunlight, temperature, wind, water, soil and naturally
occurring events such as storms, fires and volcanic eruptions. Biotic
factors are the living parts of an environment, such as plants, animals and
micro-organisms. Together, they are the biological factors that determine
a species' success. Each of these factors impacts others, and a mix of
both is necessary for an ecosystem to survive.
Environmental education is a process that allows individuals to exploreenvironmental issues,

Ecology is an environmental science in its most literal sense - the study of environments
and the entities within it. Although closely associated with environmentalism
and conservation today, it does not necessarily follow; an ecology can also be human gut
flora, how the elements of an urban environment function and the ecology of soil nutrient
cycles. The word “ecology” comes from the Greek and means “house study” or “living
relations study”. That essentially defines what it is - the study of relationships between
those who occupy a home.
